Going on year 2 with my children attending BCA in their Pre K program. They love going to school and we know they are always in good hands. We are committed to the next 15 years at this school and so thankful they are in our community.

BCA continues to amaze me with its desire to always improve its learning environment for its students. Academics are rigorous, but their emphasis the spiritual/social/emotional health is also very evident. Couldn't be prouder to be a BCA Knight!

I graduated from BCA in 2014. The school prepared me for life after high school. Academically I am successful in college as a sophomore. My faith has continued to grow deeper spiritually. In addition, my work ethics couldn't be stronger. I am so appreciative to all my junior high and high school teachers, and I am proud to be a BCA alum!
